Hmmm, is this woman not related to Danny Armstrong the former Cedarville major whom resigned in 2011 and in 2012 pleaded guilty to misappropriating FEMA funds. hmmm interesting timeline. Tabatha Armstrong Bowen if I’m not mistaken. Armstrong’s actions resulted in a total loss to the city of Cedarville in the amount of $10,182.70. Seems the apple doesn’t fall far.

Happy, happy, happy

Neither 5News nor the Times Record even bothered to spend 30 seconds on Google to identify the business of the alleged theft. Lazy.

It would be nice if there was at least an effort to add valid informtation to the press releases they’re given. It’s not even that hard half the time. You just have to be willing to not settle for being spoon fed your stories.

Realist!!

Most businesses do not want to be identified when this happens. This happens quite often and most times no charges are filed to save the company the embarrassment. I know for a fact one of the large companies in this area had the same thing happen and they were so embarrassed they didn’t file charges. Another small company did file charges and the women had been stealing for probably 20 years. They went back 10 years in their records and finally quit searching. Any company should require two signatures on a check or have someone review each and every check before it is mailed.

Just to throw out a REAL WINNER
This guy still is on the District 4 Fire Department doing computers
This is only the tip of the iceberg on this guy. Check out the many charges against him and his buddy. Why didn’t this make the news? And his was perpetrated at the county courthouse and with fire department computers. Way to go 5news.

NWA Men Charged With Running Email Hacking Business

Federal prosecutors in California last week charged two northwest Arkansas men with selling email passwords through a website called NeedAPassword.com.

Mark Anthony Townsend, 45, whose residences were listed as Cedarville (Crawford County) and Rogers, and Joshua Alan Tabor, 25, of Prairie Grove (Washington County), were named in separate but similar informations filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. Unlike an indictment issued by a grand jury, an information is a criminal charge filed directly by prosecutors.

A news release issued by the FBI said Townsend and Tabor, as well as three customers of other, similar websites, are “expected to plead guilty in the coming weeks.” The customers were from California, Michigan and New York.

Townsend is accused of establishing NeedAPassword.com and Tabor of assisting in its operation. According to the information filed against Tabor, the website “was in the business of obtaining passwords of victim email account submitted by a customer.” Customers paid for unauthorized passwords through a Paypal account, and the charge against Townsend said NeedAPassword.com provided unauthorized passwords for more than 5,900 email addresses for various customers.

It’s not clear exactly when NeedAPassword.com was operational, but Townsend is specifically accused of selling the password to the Yahoo email account of someone identified only as “J.F.” on May 13 of last year, while Tabor allegedly sold the password to “C.P.’s” Google mail account in July 2011.

No phone numbers could be located for Townsend or Tabor. No defense attorneys for Townsend or Tabor are listed in the federal records.
